window managers

[chadm1967]

Hi all,

I'm running Debian Woody and just installed XFce and Window Maker via apt-get. Now, I'm not sure how to add them to the choice of window managers at the login screen. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

What login manager? If it's something like 'kdm' there one hell of a process to doing it. On the other hand. You can change your .Xclients-default in the /root directory or your user directory to change the 'default' wm. The .xinitrc you can change for if you're loading from CLI. The Xclients-default is pretty easy. Should look something like this:

!#/bin/sh

exec kde (your old default)

Just change that command stiring, and voila! Your default should be set to your preffered Window Manager.
